A Hamas delegation headed by the group's deputy chief in Gaza, Khalil Al-Hayya, will head to Cairo on April 7 for Gaza ceasefire talks, the group said Saturday.

The Palestinian movement refused to "back down" on Saturday from its demands for a Gaza ceasefire, but agreed to send a delegation for renewed talks in Cairo over the weekend.

"Hamas confirms its adherence to the position it presented on March 14 ... and we will not back down from this position," a statement said, referring to the group's demands that include a complete ceasefire in Gaza and the withdrawal of Israeli forces from the Palestinian territory.
